Antoine Cyr (born 18 September 1998) is a Canadian cross-country skier.[1][2] Cyr started skiing at a young age, as both of his parents were also cross-country skiers.[1]

Career[edit]

At the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2021, Cyr, along with partner Graham Ritchie, placed in seventh place during the team sprint event. They were the youngest team in the final.[3] At the start of the 2021–22 FIS Cross-Country World Cup, Cyr had two top 15 finishes, finishing in 11th and 12th during races of the first World Cup stop.[4]

In January 2022, Cyr won the sprint race as part of the Canadian Championships, which confirmed his automatic qualification to Canada's 2022 Olympic team.[5] On January 13, 2022, Cyr was officially named to Canada's 2022 Olympic team.[6][7][8][9][10]
